The HSI display provides excellent guidance to a way point. Is there any way to display distance to the way point on the instrument display screen. If not, this would be a simple and valuable addition as it would proide excellent guidance to an airport in an emergency. The HSI is easier to navigate with then the runway guidance indicator available on secitonal charts.

Yes, you sure can add a distance instrument to any screen. With the HSI instrument displayed, just go to Menu - Settings - Screen - Custom Instruments - ADD, then select the Distance to Waypoiint instrument, move it to where you want it in the screen, re-size it, etc., then SAVE those settings. Enjoy, ===Ralph

You can customize the "instrument BOXES" on the Instrument panel page exactly as you do on the map pages.

Each of the three main modes - MAPS, INSTRUMENT PANEL and and PLATES remembers what was used last in that mode and switches to it when you change mode. So, from the instrument PANEL page go to MENU button SETUP and CUSTOMIZE INSTRUMENTS :-)

Got to admire the iFly support forums. Started typing, got interupted by a phone call and by the time I hit submit button Ralph had already posted another reply with the answer :-). The user community is yet another reason I love my iFly :-)
